LIVING IN ENDLESS CIRCLES

If you have ever lived in any rural area like I have, where wood fetching is a mainstay, you will notice they sharpen the axe or machete to be used first, before going to fetch the woods.

This prevents bluntness, reduces time wasting and aside from delivering the wood, saves energy.

We live in a world where cause and effect is a principle. Where sowing and reaping shall never end as long as the earth remains.

Few things can be as frustrating as arriving at the same pointless end always. Many times we strive to make progress, new efforts, new drive, but same unwanted results.

One way out of this is to give up, but we don't want to give up, we want to overcome.

One of the ways of aborting such endless circus is to stop, and review the process.
If you keep getting the same undesirable result, you must seek to know why.


“Using a dull ax requires great strength, so sharpen the blade. That’s the value of wisdom; it helps you succeed.”
‭(‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭10:10‬ ‭NLT‬‬).

You can't do the same things and expect a different result, to every effect there is a cause. Every seed will birth its fruit, not another kind. Mango seed for mango fruit, not mango seed for orange fruit.

I do not speak as one who has totally mastered the processes of life but I speak from the point of truth that points to wisdom that says this is the way.

Today, the direction wisdom is pointing us to, is to stop!, review the process, like the scripture says, sharpen your blade.

How can we sharpen our blade to get the desired result?
Renew your thought pattern
Check your belief system
Get more knowledge on the issue
Modify or change processes that are not working
Keep at it

These are a few ways to sharpen your blade, to reinforce your drive and to overcome arriving at the same pointless end.
